一种XML Schema模式到关系模式的映射算法

XML文档数据如何存储在主流的关系数据库中，对企业信息集成起着至关重要的作用。针对此问题，提出一种XML Schema模式到关系模式的约束保留映射算法——XSD2RS，该算法基于模式对象组件建模和约束保留机制来完成XML Schema模式到关系模式的映射，进而实现XML文档数据在关系数据库中的存储。     

基于模型映射方法实现XML与关系数据的相互转换

基于模型映射方法可以独立于XML文档的DTD或Schema,在关系型数据库中设计固定的关系模式用于存储XML文档。采用Dietz编码方法对XML文档中的元素进行编码,通过编码值对反应元素之间的祖先/后裔关系,并在关系表中存储元素的Dietz编码值,并依此作为依据设计算法将存储于关系数据库中的XML文档进行还原。     

XML文档DTD到关系模式的转换

随着XML技术的不断发展和成熟,如何有效的利用关系数据库技术存储和查询XML文档显得非常重要。提出了一种XML文档DTD到关系表格的两阶段转换法,先将DTD文件映射为XSchema模式,通过对XSchema模式的约束简化、内联、添加键约束、数据类型和属性转换得到能够在RDBMS中存储的关系模型,映射后XML文档信息不会发生丢失且能保持键约束。实例的成功转换表明了该方法的可行性。     

基于代价的XML Schema到关系模式的映射策略研究

XML作为一种数据交换的国际标准,已经广泛应用于各个领域,如何准确地实现XML与关系数据库的转换已经成为一个重要的研究课题。本文主要研究XML Schema到关系模式的映射方法,通过对XML Schema的结构和语法进行分析,提取元素的语义信息,找到真正的复杂类型的元素,将XML Schema转换为E_Schema,E_Schema表达方式简单且信息完整,结合基于查询代价的思想对E_Schema进行处理,得到最优模式,再将其转换成关系模式,而且能保持原有的层次关系,从而实现了一个更为简单、完善的映射方案。     

基于轴节点的XML Schema到关系模式的映射

DTD模式不支持复杂元素类型定义,在引入Schema形式化定义的基础上,给出XML上的复杂元素和函数依赖的定义,提出一种基于轴节点的映射算法。该算法根据轴节点和XML函数依赖生成关系表,能保持XML文档的内容和结构信息,保持函数依赖,减少存储冗余,并且证明映射后的关系模式满足3NF。     

基于Schema的XML关系存储策略研究

研究了基于XML Schema的XML数据关系化存储策略,给出了一种基于Schema从XML到关系数据库的模式映射方法.以XML Schema文档作为输入,通过分析将它转换为一个包含XML Schema中组件信息的语义图;然后把XML Schema图内联;最后由内联图生成关系模式.     

一种基于模型映射的XML文档存储模型

本文提出了一种基于模型映射的XML文档存储模型Xpev,模型映射的主要特点是存储XML文档时不需要文档的模式信息。Xpev主要由三个表构成,通过Xpev可以将以数据为中心的XML文档存储到关系数据库中。Xpev模型优于已有的基于模型映射的存储模型。     

一种支持动态 XML 文档的存储模式设计与应用

针对XRel模式无法有效支持动态XML文档存储的问题,在区间编码的基础上,引入向量方法提出一种支持XML文档动态更新的编码方案——NewDietz,设计可以存储NewDietz编码元素的关系模式,并给出新元素在关系模式下的更新方法。新模式既保证新元素的有效存储,又兼顾动态XML文档从该模式中重组需要对元素进行祖先-后裔判断的问题。为验证新模式的实际应用效果,开发一个水利空间数据存储与展示模块,并对空间数据分别采用2种存储模式进行验证。对比结果表明,新模式明显提升XML文档在关系数据库中的存储效率,并有效支持XML文档的动态更新,为基于XML的水利业务数据在关系数据库中的高效存储提供一种可能。     

扩展P-Schema及其在XML Schema到关系模式映射中的应用

鉴于P-Schema在XML Schema到关系模式映射中的局限性,对P-Schema进行了扩展,并提出了一种基于扩展P-Schema的XML模式到关系模式的映射方法,对映射中的一些难点问题,如多值元素映射,递归元素映射,关键字、唯一性约束映射等重要问题提出了解决方法。     

基于编码的XML关系数据库存储

在XML的发展过程中,如何有效地利用关系数据库技术存储和查询XML数据已经成为一个研究热点．提出了一种基于前、后序编码的XML关系数据库存储方法,该方法采用的模式映射方法能够使基于不同DTD（或schema）的XML文档保存在同一个关系表中,支持快速的XML路径查询,且具有较高的XML文档重组效率．对该方法中递归模式的处理技术也进行了讨论．实验表明,与XRel,Florescu和Kossman等人提出的XML关系数据库存储方法相比,该方法能够缩短复杂XML路径查询（如带条件谓词约束的路径查询）的响应时间．     

Semantic schema refinements for multilevel schema integration

Within the database field, schema refinements have been proved useful for documentation and maintenance purposes; moreover, schemata describing the reality of interest at different levels of abstraction are extensively used in Computer Aided Software Engineering tools and visual query languages. So, much effort has been spent in analyzing schema transformations and schema refinements. Till now, however, while the syntaxof schema transformations has been deeply investigated, the semantics has been very often neglected. In this paper we present a full formal framework, supporting both the syntax and the semantics of schema refinements. Such a formal framework is used to support a methodology able to merge a set of schemata and the top-down chains of refinement planes produced during their design. The result of this kind of integration, that we call multilevel integration, is an integrated schema plus an associated top-down chain of schemata. The integrated schema and the chain are related to the input schemata by interesting properties, giving rise to a two-dimensional structure useful for exploring the data content of complex information systems.     

Transforming RDB schema into well-structured OODB schema

When transforming relational database (RDB) schema into object-oriented database(OODB) schema, much effort was put on examining key and inclusion dependency (ID) constraints to identify class and establish inheritance and association between classes. However, in order to further remove the original data redundancy and update anomaly, multi-valued dependency (MVD) should also be examined. In this paper, we discuss class structures and define well-structured classes. Based on MVDs, a theorem is given transforming a relation schema into a well-structured class. To transform RDB schema into OODB schema, a composition process simplifying the input RDB schema and an algorithm transforming the simplified RDB schema into well-structured OODB classes are developed.     

Form invariance of schema and exact schema theorem

One of the most important research questions in GAs is the explanation of the evolutionary process of CAs as a mathematical object. In this paper, we use matrix linear transformations to do it, first. This new method makes the study on mechanism of CAs simpler. We obtain the conditions under which the operators of crossover and mutation are commutative operators of CAs. We also give an exact schema equation on the basis of the concept of schema space. The result is similar to Stephens and Waelbroeck's work, but they have novel meanings and a larger degree of coarse graining.     

关系模式到模块化的XML Schema的模型映射方法

基于关系模式的向量模型和XML模式树模型,提出了一种关系模式到模块化的XML Schema的模型映射方法BTT,其映射规则保持了关系模式的结构、属性以及约束信息的完整保留,自底向上的映射顺序在没有牺牲转换效率的情况下,完成了模块化的封装与重用,使得对转换后的XML Schema文档的更新操作可以在模块化内部完成,大大提高了维护效率。实验结果表明了与传统的嵌套层次的XML Schema文档相比,BTT方法转换形成的XML Schema在维护效率上有明显优势。     

概率关系模式与概率XML模式转换算法的研究*

通过比较基于可能世界模型的概率数据在关系数据模型和XML数据模型中的表示方法,根据概率属性与普通属性的关系把概率关系模式分为1NF和3NF,根据分布节点与普通节点的关系把概率XML模式也分为1NF和3NF,以扩展的概率DTD文件为例设计了概率关系模式和概率XML模式之间的转换算法。实例分析结果表明该算法是有效的,也为现存的概率关系数据与概率XML数据之间提供了一种有效的模式转换方法。     

Conceptual schema for CAD

A conceptual schema and the associated concepts of entities, attributes, relations and consistency constraints established during the 1976 IFIP TC-2 conference are applied to engineering computer-aided design. Additional concepts of multiple hierarchies of models, structural versions, design control, design analysis and synthesis are required.     

Translating relational schema into XML schema definition with data semantic preservation and XSD graph

Many legacy systems have been created by using relational database operating not for the Internet expression. Since the relational database is not an efficient way for data explosion, electronic transfer of data, and electronic business on the Web, we introduce a methodology in which a relational schema will be translated to an Extensible Markup Language (XML) schema definition for creating an XML database that is a simple and efficient format on the Web. We apply the Indirect Schema Translation Method that is a semantic-based methodology in this project. The mechanism is that the Relational Schema will be translated into the conceptual model, an Extended Entity Relationship (EER) Model using Reverse Engineering. Afterward, the EER model will be mapped to an XML Schema Definition Language (XSD) Graph as an XML conceptual schema using Semantic Transformation. Finally, the XSD Graph will be mapped into the XSD as an XML logical schema in the process of Forward Engineering, and the data semantics of participation, cardinality, generalization, aggregation, categorization, N-ary and U-ary relationship are preserved in the translated XML schema definition.
